Cali Crusher - Homegrown 4-Piece Standard

Cali Crusher Grinders are USA made and designed with indestructible radial teeth to provide the perfect grinder consistency every time!

The Cali Crusher Homegrown 4-piece grinder is made of medical grade aerospace 6061-T6 aluminum with indestructible teeth to hold up to years and years of shredding. The CC's aluminum teeth are radial cut which shreds one way and fluffs the other for the most consistent grind. Cali Crushers feature a unique quarter turn lock and release mechanism to eliminate the possibility of cross threading. The fine mesh screen is easily removable with a hex screwdriver and the extra large pollen chamber below is rounded for easy access. The Crusher's grooved edges provide a slip-free grip and the internal magnet is among the strongest on the market. Every Cali Crusher grinder is proudly USA-made in San Diego, California. The standard size Cali Crusher is 2.35" wide by 2.2" tall.

4-Piece Benefits: The top section of the Cali Crusher is filled with radial cut teeth that shred and fluff your herbs. When the material is shredded to the proper size it falls through the holes into the second chamber. As the herbs fall into the second chamber the finest pollen falls through the Stainless Steel mesh screen. The bottom chamber collects pollen for use at a later time.

I picked this up because I'm always interested to see different takes on an existing technology. The machining is exquisite, which with the price tag I would hope it was. The quarter turn opening works great, and as long as you grind clockwise nothing comes apart. The removable screen design worries me as that hex bolt head is going to get filled with kief over time, making extraction more difficult, though I absolutely applaud the extra effort to make the screen properly removable.

The grinding itself isn't the smoothest in the world, I'd put it at a solid above average.

The main issue is, I vape almost exclusively so I'm typically looking for med/fine grind and this produces a coarse grind. Even flipping the grinder upside down for grinding to emulate the behavior of a two piece was at best looking at a medium grind. If you do jays or smoke bowls this is probably perfect, but for vapes I found myself wanting it a bit finer.
